Jafox is right-on in his descriptives of VTL & Manley tube DACS. Audio Advisor used to sell these, I still have the original catalogues. I own a modded Alpha now and I'm going to venture into the Audio Logic and Audio Aero tube DACS to do some comparisons with my CEC transport.
From CAL Alpha to ARC DAC3:an upgrade?
Hi
I currently use CAL Alpha with Audio Research CD2 (as a transport only).Recently i noticed a number of used Audio Research DAC 3 on the market for a very decent price (from $1200 to $1500).Should i take an upgrade plunge or it is not worth the money?Do they have similar sound?How big is the improvement in sound?I appreciate all your responses.thanx.
